"Do you respond to winks or do you prefer a message when you are approached on here?" It’s pretty rare for either to come this way unsolicited. But I am happy with a wink as an expression of interest and a message can follow. I don’t subscribe to “wink equals lazy”. Although I can see why people would. | |||

"Do you respond to winks or do you prefer a message when you are approached on here?" If we get a wink we usually look at the profile and if we like we usually wink back or message xxx | |||

"Do you respond to winks or do you prefer a message when you are approached on here?" I always respond to a message because I find it good manners but I don't always return a wink, I only return it if I am interested. I suppose a wink is lazier than a message that someone has taken time over... | |||

"Do you respond to winks or do you prefer a message when you are approached on here? So if I get a wink from someone and I like what I see I wink back. I’ve sent a few out too. If I don’t get a message I assume they’re not interested. I am so shit at sending first messages though! " just go for it, we used winks loads when we first started but have connected with loads more great couples we get on with by sending a message first. | |||

"Winks are a great way to know if people are interested, we usually follow up with a message if we like what we see." Same me | |||

"Do you respond to winks or do you prefer a message when you are approached on here?" Message. If you're serious, just say hi. We don't bite. We don't pay to much attention to winks to be honest. Far to often in the past we received them, winked and messaged back then nothing but radio silence. | |||

It’s an icebreaker and to be honest I don’t blame people who would rather do this than risk sending a message only to be ignored. It’s not laziness as some claim it just shows that you like what you see. Miss V" Funnily enough we winked a really hot couple and got a really snobby message back about it, this also put us off. They looked great but came across really arrogant, could have just deleted the wink and moved on. | |||

"Do you respond to winks or do you prefer a message when you are approached on here?" It's very rare we respond to a wink because we hardly ever initiate contact, but we do look at them to see who's interested and we're pleased to receive them. They are a damn site better than a crap message, which is the main type of message we get. | |||

"Lol either would be wonderful , I'd probably fall off my chair though... As a single guy it's extremely exhausting sending out hundreds of messages for not even a 'no thanks' in return, hence when my fingers are on fire I just send a wink and hope for the best " Depends what you are sending, we try to respond to anyone that’s made an effort and read our profile. If it’s just a how are you doing or hey then it gets deleted. | |||

Going back to the topic, snobbery leaves us cold. Doesn’t matter how hot the profile. It’s a highly undesirable trait. | |||

"As a single guy i wink profiles. Sometimes a profile has no public photos but the profile text is what i am looking for. So a simple wink back can spark a conversation to ask for pics to see if there is an attraction.plus there is alot of attractive profiles on here and i would not get anything done if i wrote a message to everyone." Haha fair enough, although we don’t at all message or wink a profile with no pics. | |||

"Do you respond to winks or do you prefer a message when you are approached on here?" I dont mind both as the wink is a ice-breaker? Ice-breaker (if you like the looks of the profile / matches what you are looking for) then you can proceed to send face pics or a paragraph ? There are loads who ignore the wink feature maybe due to getting spammed | |||

"Most of the winks I receive are from people who can’t message me because of my filters stopping them ....... I will never respond to a wink , " I didn't realise winks didn't follow the same criteria as message filters? I only wink people who have men listed as someone they are looking for. If they have omitted men I don't wink them as I take it as no men please despite them not having not having men blocked. | |||

At least a wink does allow you to know if the other person is at least open to contact. | |||
